The atmosphere was still very crowded, then Anita and Hanif decided to find a shady place and rather quiet to avoid the hustle and bustle.
“we try to find a seat that is a bit quiet yuk?” bring Hanif. Anita nodded and followed Hanif's steps.
They got space around the campus library, the place was cool and rather quiet. There are only a few graduates who take pictures with their colleagues. Hanif and Anita sat facing each other. Hanif took off his toga hat and toga suit.
“mas.. can you ask me something? But if you do not want to answer it is okay?” tanya Anita accompanied by affirmation. Honestly, Anita observed Hanif earlier, her eyes were visible after crying. And Anita's heart ached to see it.
“soal my family?” hanif asked while throwing a smile. Anita was surprised, why Hanif could know the contents of her head.
Anita nodded slowly while looking at Hanif as if her eyes were asking, is that okay?
Anita felt bad, but was still curious. It was such a proud moment that no family was present to witness.
“but the story is long. Do you not mind? You might not be able to go home if you hear my story.” Said the original Hanif. Anita put her lips together, and immediately made Hanif laugh.
“hahaha.alright, kidding kok.” Hanif chuckled then sighed before starting his long story.
“aku and two of my grandparents are now living with sumbang and pack my lek. The reason they couldn't come was because my bed was in a condition that didn't allow me to be left behind. I've been begging the Chinese before, but really can't. Paklekku also did not dare to take off my two adek came alone here, because they are women.” Hanif.
“parents mas Hanif where?” ask Anita curious.
“they were divorced when I was 6 years old. My mother then left us, me and my sisters who were 3 years and 1 year old. Since then we have never seen him. We also forget his face. There was not a single photo of my mother left at home. It seems our father deliberately threw it away. As for my father, he went to Kalimantan. Rarely come home, it used to be possible once a year, but already 4 years he did not go home, he only sent money to the package to meet our needs. Do you remember when you asked to teach matkul sir Surya? I said that Saturday and Sunday are my days off from school right?”
“because of those 2 days I had to work. I had to meet my own needs during college.. I can't possibly burden the paklek and sebuah anymore because they are too troubled to take care of my two adek. While the cost of this college I got full scholarships. And because I'm a man so I can survive for myself. And when there is more fortune I give it to my brother. As soon as the story, deck Anita.” Said Hanif while reviewing a smile, he finished his story even though it was sometimes stammered.
His eyes are now glazed. But Hanif seemed to be holding her back from crying.
Anita was silent to Hanif's story. His life was very heavy. Added to the betrayal of the lover. Anita's heart became pity. Her eyes were in tears as Hanif finished his story.
He could not comment anything. Afraid that his words would make Hanif uncomfortable.
“kok silent?” asked Hanif who saw Anita just looked down silent. Anita just shook her head. Her tears escaped. Anita covered her face with both hands. And it made Hanif even more astonished.
“Anita why?”
Anita still did not answer him, her hands still tightly closed her face. Now, even the sound of a rushing voice, Anita could not help but cry anymore.
Hanif ventured closer to Anita, crouched down in front of her, Hanif's hand holding the chair Anita occupied, her face looking up at Anita's face covered in hands.
When I heard your story, I somehow hurt my heart. Did I really love you? like wanting to be next to you to strengthen you. Anita said in her heart.
